Does the Quran support Theocracy?

It's Leo - doing what Leo does.

I still don't understand the whole sailor and elephants post.  Even with pictures.  Maybe hand puppets and crayons would help.

I come from a family of sailors and still can't work out what the hell post #33 was supposed to be about.

He is saying that ISIS, Al-Nusra, Al-Quada, Taliban, Jama’at Nusrat al Islam wal Muslimeen are not true muslims.

My comment: This is the no true Scotsman fallacy.

He says that putting on a captain suit doesn’t make you suddenly into a captain. It takes years of practice, making mistakes, learning from your mistakes.

My comment: Violent behavior has been part of all flavors of the jewish religions. It is not a case of suddenly deciding to be a muslim and then making mistakes. Violent behavior, misogyny, possibly racism has been going on since the inception of islam. BTW, it is crystal clear that judaism and christianity contain racism. I am not familiar with every page of Islam so I can’t say much about it.

I guess the line about the elephants is just a light hearted joke.
